Best Answer

With the muzzle pointed up, measure a charge of gunpowder, pour it down the barrel. Bump the butt to settle the powder. Place a greased cloth patch over muzzle, place ball on patch, press in with ball starter, then ram all the way down with ramrod. REMOVE RAMROD FROM BARREL. You can now place percussion cap on nipple, or priming powder in pan.
